Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a thermoplastic molding compound containing polycarbonate and/or polyester carbonate, rubber-modified vinyl (co)polymer and a polyorganosiloxane masterbatch, a process for producing the molding compound and the use of the molding compound for producing moldings and the moldings produced.
  • Polycarbonate blends have been known for a long time and are used in many areas of application. By choosing the blend partners, possible additional additives and the respective proportions of the components, the properties can be varied over a wide range and thus adapted to the requirements of the component to be manufactured.
  • a large area of application is vehicle construction, especially the production of automobiles and public transport such as buses and trains.
  • the stick-slip phenomenon refers to the stick-sliding of two solid bodies moving against each other. This phenomenon occurs when a body is moved whose static friction is significantly greater than the sliding friction (kinetic friction). Creaking or squeaking is a friction-induced sound caused by relative motion resulting from the stick-slip phenomenon between boundary surfaces. The elastic deformation of the two contact surfaces stores energy that is released when the static friction exceeds the sliding friction. The release of energy creates a vibration of the surfaces, which produces audible squeaking noises in the range of 200 - 10,000 Hz, which are particularly unpleasant in the vehicle interior and are often used as an indicator of poor construction quality.
  • Various techniques to eliminate or minimize noise include: applying anti-creaking surfaces or graining, which is not possible on all surfaces, changing the part geometry (tool adjustment necessary), applying anti-creaking coating or using suitable lubricants, felt strips or foam seals (technical Realizable but with additional costs and work steps connected) or even a change of material (selection of other material pairings if possible in relation to the property profile).

  • the risk priority number serves as a measure of the stick-slip tendency. It describes the tendency of a material pair that tends to stick-slip under the given conditions. RPZ can take a value from 1 to 10.
  • an RPN between 1 and 3 is to be viewed as uncritical, i.e. H. Stick-slip is not to be expected under the tested conditions.
  • an RPN of 4 to 5 the material pairing is in a limit range. Audible noise caused by the stick-slip effect cannot be ruled out.
  • the material pairing is critical with regard to the stick-slip effect and audible noise is to be expected.
  • the principle of stick-slip measurement is based on the fact that two samples are moved relative to each other under the influence of a normal force (40N) and at a predefined speed (1mm/s). This causes the selected material surfaces to “shear” against each other grated.
  • the test stand consists of a movement unit, the flat slide, and a force unit, a leaf spring equipped with a round sample carrier.
  • the slide sample (60 mm ⁇ 70 mm) and spring sample (30 mm ⁇ 50 mm) are glued on using double-sided adhesive tape.
  • the spring sample is moved forward against the slide sample with a predefined normal force using a pneumatic drive and the slide is then set into a linear oscillatory movement by an electric motor.
  • the oscillating movement of the carriage has a travel distance (testing distance) of 20 mm.
  • the alternation between sticking and sliding is responsible for the generation of stick-slip noise.
